From toddler chores to teenage responsibility, this book offers biblical wisdom and practical encouragement to help you train your children to see work not as a burden, but as a blessing.

2025-05-1241 minJust the BooksEp 28: City of God in Today's WorldIn this thought-provoking episode of Just the Books, we explore how Augustine’s City of God speaks powerfully into today’s cultural, political, and spiritual landscape. Written in the 5th century during the fall of Rome, Augustine’s monumental work draws a sharp contrast between the City of Man and the City of God—a distinction that still helps us navigate the tension between earthly kingdoms and our eternal citizenship.What can Augustine teach us about Christian identity, civic responsibility, and hope in a fractured world? How should believers think about power, politics, and culture in light of heave...

Join us as we consider how followers of Jesus should think about justice, peace, and the role of government in a fallen world.Whether you're new to Just War Theory or looking to deepen your understanding of Chri...

Together, we unpack what this means for how we view history, culture, politics, and our own hearts. Can we live as citizens of the City o...
